1:30 5/8/3310Me and my associate (M) have plotted our course for Colonia. The first leg of our journey leads us to Flyiedgai UL-C d13-41 in the Flyiedgai Nebula.
As much as I want this to be a week long trip, it may take months from the look of it. 22k Lightyears is no joke, but with my ship it'll be a breeze. However my associate on the other hand is not as fortunate. With my jump range, Flyiedgai is only 175 jumps away. For him? 309 jumps. To make matters worse, I need to follow him the whole way there to assure that both of us we have the fuel to make it. I've considered leaving him behind, but he's my best friend and I don't wanna be that guy who leaves his friend stranded in the middle of space 10kLY away from the bubble.

We're already behind schedule. I told this guy to have his stuff loaded up on the FC a week ago when we made our plans! He couldn't even be bothered getting a Guardian FSD booster! God no wonder his jump range is so low and he has to jump 300 times! I can't believe I've got to put up with this guy for a whole week.

My navlock has already gone to shit. My patience was already being tested with the 300 jumps, but this software nonsense? No thanks! I've got a clear line of communications with M so if shit goes sideways I can turn right back around and help. Currently 160/175 jumps left. Once I hit the halfway mark I'm going to take a nice little nap while M catches up. After that, we're home free baby!

So me and M have been discussing music on our journey via comms and we've begun an amazing argument. M is of the opinion that the Earth Classic "American Idiot" by Green Day is a "Abomination of Musical Nonsense" and I get it, that ancient rock stuff is definitely not for everyone. However I've argued that the hit show Johnny Test (Aired in 2005) featured the aforementioned song as its theme music. M believes that I am spitting nonsense and have no evidence to back up this claim, however after listening to both of them together he blatantly ignores the provided evidence and refuses to believe the truth! I'm gonna die on this hill, especially because I have literally nothing better to do. You'd think that with all of this modern technology DeLacy would make their ships have some form of entertainment in them for those long rides across the galaxy. Only pieces of entertainment I've got is my comms system and some cracked firmware I modded onto my ships console that lets me listen to music.

HE ADMITTED I WAS RIGHT!!! HAAAAAA!!!
2:56 5/8/3310
Man what the hell is this music playing on my radio module?! The genre says "Thargoid Hyperboink" man what the hell! I'm in the middle of nowhere who the fuck is playing this shit?
2:58 5/8/3310
Alright I'm not sure what those Xenos are cooking on, but I've got to admit, they know how to make a beat.
3:21 5/8/3310
I've discovered a new system with unscanned planets. Time to put my name all over this place!
4:08 5/8/3310
M bailed on me. I don't know how to feel. It's a blessing and a curse. I'm not being held back anymore, no need to worry about backtracking to refuel him. This also means that I'm on my own. I got nothing to fall back on. If I run out of fuel, need repairs, or if anything goes wrong, I'm dead. It's not the worst thing in the world. I am a decently skilled pilot after all. Just hope that I've prepared enough to be self sufficient.
4:54 5/8/3310
I've arrived in Thailoi ZN-S BB-1 and I am absolutely drained. I think I'll just call it a night here. Hope my life support doesn't go out while I sleep. Signing off.
